I was happy when I woke up the morning after; a lot happier than I had ever been in a long while too. Rob had left late in the night; I had heard him when I woke up again but I didn't try to stop him.

Because I wanted to keep us, our relationship a secret for a while, just while I got everything sorted; because I had a feeling that if Rachael or any of the Girls found out then that would be it. They wouldn't be very happy with me; not after the way that I had treated him and the Girls in the first place.

I had a shower and put on a black and white dress, which was strappy and had a small bow on the front of it, at the top. It was a dress that I would normally wear and I put some casual, black flip flops with it.

I went downstairs and made myself breakfast; cooking Rob and Tom breakfast whilst I did. I usually did anyway, but today; I was just in an extra good mood for everything. Rob came downstairs first, which was a good thing.

I threw a smile at him as I placed his breakfast on a plate first. He smiled back at me as he walked into the kitchen, and walked around to me. He looked good today-he always did, but today he looked even more-so-with a thin, white shirt, on, black suit and lightened jeans.

''Hey-'' I was interrupted when he placed his lips over mine. I instantly let go of the sides where my hands had been and wrapped them around his neck. I wasn't going to be complaining if this was the good morning that I got from him every single day.

He pressed my back into the counter, wrapping his hands around my sides and pressing our bodies closer, the only thing in the way was our clothes, sadly. Sorry, but…this was the effect he had on me.

It was impossible to think straight with his body so close to mine, pressed against my own body, like this. Our mouths crashed together eagerly with each urgent kiss and I was more than happy to let this carry on all day…

Only…Tom's heavy footsteps walking down the stairs warned us that if we didn't pull away now…we would be getting caught. Rob automatically pulled away from me, sighing heavily as he did.

I gasped my breathe back, trying to ignore my racing heart and the way that I definitely wanted to pull him back against me and let it carry on. I watched Rob force himself to sit at the kitchen table after I handed him his breakfast and tried to act normal; even though I felt very flustered now.

''Hiya.'' I called to Tom as innocently as I could as he walked into the kitchen. He grinned at me and his eyes looked to the breakfast that I was cooking for the Guys. Of course; that kept the smile on his face.

''What's all this?'' Tom asked me in surprise, making me huff at him in response. It wasn't as if I didn't do it often for them; sometimes I would cook them breakfast.

''I do cook you breakfast sometimes.'' I reminded him sourly. He grinned at me in response, taking the plate of food that I handed to him.

''I know, but…I don't expect you to it. Its still a surprise.'' He admitted innocently. I put my own food on my plate; with vegetarian sausages, because I was a vegetarian and sat down at the table, with them.

''I feel like I need to, if I'm honest. I don't pay any rent, so-''

''-Only because Rob doesn't let you. Or me, for that matter.'' Tom interrupted me. I laughed in response, rolling my eyes at him. It was true though, actually. From the word go, Rob hadn't let me pay nay rent at all; and Tom had just been doing what his friend wanted.

I glanced across shyly at Rob, who was busy eating like Tom. Good; because that meant that he hadn't caught me glancing at him. I was sat next to Rob, with Tom sat on Rob's side, and the closeness of me and Rob gave me a quick chance to really take in his beauty.

There were things about him and his face that I hadn't even noticed before, not until I took a closer look. He had a few small freckles on his cheeks, not noticeable-to the human eye-until given a closer look.

And his eyelashes were curled over, almost in a feminine style, but still in a very beautiful kind of way. The top of his auburn-blond hair was stranded together; messy, where he had ran his hands through it.

His lips were rosy and tinted, and they almost matched the warmth of his cheeks. But it was those lips that I couldn't take my eyes off. I licked my own lips in response, still staring. It was impossible really to look at anyone else with such a beauty sat next to me…

''Charlie?'' I looked round in shock, knowing that I had been staring for way too long than I should have done and saw Tom staring at me bewildered. My eyes widened in shock, because I had a bad feeling now.

Shit, I had been caught and now it was only a matter of time before he works out why I was staring at Rob like such a flaming pervert for. (Pervert because I know how I had looked; like I wanted to tear his clothes off, which was the truth)

Tom laughed then, smirking at me. ''You awake now, sleepy head?'' He asked me jokingly. I forced a smile back and looked away embarrassed. ''Jesus, what were you staring at?'' Tom asked me in surprise.

''Urm…nothing. Just er…'' I trailed off, trying to think of an excuse, any excuse which meant that I could get away with it. My eyes had let me down, and now I was looking very somewhat suspicious.

Even Rob had noticed the uncomfortable way this conversation had turned. He ran his hands through his messy hair and concentrated on his breakfast. Keeping silent. Always the best way to keep out of it.

''I'm starting to wonder if you have a crush on Rob.'' Tom joked. However, he didn't get the reaction he expected. Of course, he wouldn't.

Rob choked on whatever he was eating in response to Tom's accusation, trying to clear his throat. I poured him a glass of water and handed him it to drink; cheeks flushed exactly like his in response to both the accusation and Rob's reaction.

Rob drank the water back, with Tom watching Rob confused, but I quickly looked away; flushing red as I chewed on a small piece of my vegetarian sausage.

''You alright there Rob?'' Tom asked him playfully, grinning at his friend. I quickly looked away again, flushing red still as I returned my gaze to the food quickly. This secret was going to be harder to keep than I expected.

Rob nodded in response, going silent again quickly. Tom watched us both confused, trying to work out what we were up to.

''Uh…you had a hair on…your suit.'' I reached over and grabbed the singular hair on Rob's black suit, making out that that's what I was looking at. I looked back down to my food and carried on eating silently.

''So…what are you Guys doing today?'' Tom asked us after a while. I looked up at the same time that Rob did, watching Tom.

''Probably stay in.''

''Yeah, me too.'' Rob agreed, looking back down to his food and carrying on eating. I did the same.

''What about you?'' I asked Tom, cutting into my egg yolk. He shrugged in response, drinking from his own glass of water.

''Probably stay in.'' He admitted.

''Oh…well, I need to go out in a bit…to do a bit of shopping.''

''Yeah, I'll come too. I promised you that I'd take you the other day when you was in hospital. But I'll probably have to go in disguise.'' Rob lied, probably feeling the same as I did right now; I wanted to spend time with him alone, disguise or not.

I laughed in response to the last bit but Tom was still watching us confused; because of our small lie about having to go out. ''I thought you two said that you weren't going to go out?'' Tom asked us confused.

''Yeah, but then I thought about maybe going to the nearest Primark around here. I haven't been there before and Rob did say that he would take me shopping whilst I was in hospital.'' I lied. Truth was; I wanted Rob with me to spend the day with. Alone.

''Oh…well, okay then…can I come?''

''Well…if Rob is in disguise, he'll probably only just get away with it. If you come with us then it might make it a bit obvious. Sorry.'' I apologized, even though it was true. Even if Tom was in disguise, I couldn't see the two making it work not with a lot of paparazzi about.

And there was also the fact that I really desperately wanted to be alone with Rob right now. I had wasted all this time already and I definitely wasn't going to waste anymore time. Not when he wanted me, like he did.

''It's okay.'' Tom sighed heavily, sounding somewhat bored now. I felt guilty straight away; especially as most of the reason for me to say no, was because I wanted to spend my time alone with Rob.

''I'll er…we can go out tonight, if you want. We can all go to that club round the corner; the one you like.'' I suggested, trying to think of something to make Tom happy again. He maybe bored, and I preferred Tom happier.

''Yeah, alright then.'' Tom agreed, brightening up automatically. ''If you want to, that is? Don't feel like you have to, to keep me happy. You're more friends with Rob, not me-''

''-You're both my friends.'' I interrupted him, even though that wasn't all the truth. Tom was my friend and Rob was a lot more, now.

''Well, I was just worried incase you either don't want to go with me, or if its too much after you're…er…accident.'' Tom admitted. I nodded in response, because that did make a lot of sense. The second one.

''Well firstly; I'd love to go with you. And secondly; I wont be drinking tonight.'' Tom was about to make some sarcastic comment about that second bit-I could tell by the smirk on his face-so I carried on quickly.

''I will be drinking a little bit, but I am definitely not getting drunk, or wasted. Just enough to keep me happy.'' I admitted. Because after all; that was more likely to be the outcome. I would still drink, just not get too drunk.

I got up from the table then, and took Rob and Tom's plates after they had finished eating. ''Well alright then. Shall I get a taxi for here at say…six?'' Tom asked me, as he got up from the table too.

''Urm…yep. That sounds about right.'' I agreed, as I put the plates in the sink, and turned the tap on; ready to wash up. I heard Rob get up too, but I didn't look round yet; I couldn't. just the simple knowledge of him being around made my heart suddenly speed up.

Ridiculous or what?

''Okay cool.'' Tom agreed easily, walking out of the kitchen and leaving us two alone now. I pursed my lips and looked round to see Tom heading up the stairs. As soon as I heard his bedroom door shut; I breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

''Oh thank god!'' I complained under my breathe; just incase Tom could hear me, still. That was all I needed; to see Tom run back down the stairs and exclaim something along the lines of; 'Ha! I knew it!'

Okay, so he would probably be okay with it, but it was just me panicking again. Something that I did easiest.

'You did it; staring at me like that.'' Rob replied back, sounding very smug due to that fact, ''I take it that it wasn't the piece of hair on my suit that took to your liking.'' He added, sounding VERY smug now.

I smiled at the window in front, shaking my head in response as I washed the plates up. He was acting so smug this morning, but I definitely liked it. It was nice to hear him confident; because god damn it, he was right.

''No, it was that spot that you have on your cheek instead.'' I joked, making him gasp in response. I smirked in response and put the first plate on the side to dry up. That was a very good reply, I thought proudly.

''I don't have spots!'' He complained sourly. I laughed in response, because the fact was I was just joking, and he really didn't have spots; not a single one. He had the most gorgeous skin and definitely the most kissable lips.

Tested and proven.

''No, you're right; you have lovely skin.'' I confirmed, serious again now as he started to dry the plates up.

''Ah, thanks.'' Rob replied in relief. I smirked again in response, because he did sound somewhat like a Girl when he said it like that. Bless him, I thought it was kinda cute…well actually; there was no kinda about it. I thought it was dead cute.

''And kissable lips too. Tested and proven.'' I joked. ''There's a whole list, but I don't want to carry on, because you might get a big head over it.'' I joked, laughing as I said it. He chuckled too; sounding very pleased.

''So…nice skin, soft lips…what else?'' Rob asked, ignoring the last part of my sentence. I laughed in response.

''Not telling.'' I replied sourly, playfully.

''Oh come on. Just a few.'' Rob begged, just as playfully. He put the plates away while he asked, and I was struggling not to grin in response to the ongoing joke between us.

''Nope.''

''Just one then.''

''Shiny hair.''

''What?'' Rob asked in shock, laughing at me.

I flushed in response, trying to be serious…sort-of. ''Well…you're hair's really shiny and silky; and when we…'' I whispered the next bit. ''Kiss…'' I whispered. ''I like stranding my hands through it; because its silky.'' I replied, because it was true.

''Oh,'' Rob replied, sounding a bit in shock. ''I always thought my hair was…I don't know…greasy.'' He admitted, making me roll my eyes in response. He always called me the self conscious one, but now who was talking?

There was lots of things that I loved about him, and he had the most gorgeous, silkiest hair. But with not being very confident; he wouldn't think that.

''As if; there are lots of things that I like about you, you know.'' I admitted, because it was true. There was definitely a lot of things that attracted me to him too. A hell of a lot of things.

''Okay, well now you're just going to have to tell me.''

''I'll be here all day.'' I sighed.

''That's alright; it will boost my self confidence.'' I laughed in response to his comment, but finally gave in.

''Okay, I like your hands; because they're strong and soft. Hair, because its shiny. Urm…I like the way that…you have that mysterious beautiful look about you. Like…you're always hiding something, it makes you more mysterious. But you're really beautiful too.'' I admitted, trying not to flush bright red as I talked.

''And?'' Rob asked me, to continue.

''Okay, this is the most stupidest one ever, but I cant help it. I think its really true, but please don't laugh at me.'' I begged him. He nodded, watching me confused. ''Okay.'' I agreed; shutting my eyes.

''I like your ears, because they're small, and they kinda remind me of pixie ears, but as in a nice shape.'' I admitted embarrassed. But he had to go and fucking laugh at me, didn't he? I groaned in embarrassment and hid my face between my hands.

''I KNEW THAT YOU'D FUCKING GO AND LAUGH AT ME!'' I complained from under my hands.

''I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I just weren't expecting that.'' He admitted sheepishly, wrapping his arms around me. I sighed in response, welcoming his arms. He pressed a gentle kiss to the back of my neck and I fell deeper into his embrace.

''So, go on, please. And I wont laugh again, I promise.'' He promised me, pressing his soft hands to my own and entwining our fingers carefully.

''Okay, I guess.'' I agreed, sighing. ''I like…your dress sense. I think you have a nice dress sense.''

''Uh hum.'' Rob murmured to let me know that he was listening to me; pressing another kiss to my throat.

''And your grey eyes; I think they're a mysterious color; strange and intense.'' I continued. He pressed another kiss to the back of my throat again, allowing me to continue with what I wanted to say.

''They always make me wonder what you're thinking about; because you always look like you're thinking about something. And they're a really pretty eye color to have; mysterious to match your personality.'' I continued as he traced the back of my neck with his mouth.

I shivered.

''Hmm…what else?'' He asked against my skin. His warm breathe against my skin made me shiver again. Was it possible to have this effect on somebody? To make somebody want to forget all wrongs and rights and pull him to me right now, and so badly too.

Yes it was possible; he had the effects on me.

''You're…funny.'' I gasped out. ''You have a similar humor to me, and I find that quite…sexy.'' I admitted sheepishly. He chuckled in response, making the blush warm up my cheeks again in response.

''I'm glad.'' He whispered against my skin, making me shiver again due to the warmth of his breathe against my skin again. ''So…what else?'' He asked me, as his hands trailed loosely around my waist.

''Urm…you…listen to what I say. Not even the Girls listen to everything that I say…because most of it is about you.'' I admitted sheepishly, making him chuckle again in response. I continued quickly before he could comment again.

''Urm…you are kind, sweet, loving, and you're caring too. You always care about other people more than yourself. And you love me too; that's enough for me to love. I'm lucky to find someone to put up with me.'' I confessed.

He laughed again. ''You're so beautiful, you know that?'' He asked me. I laughed and shook my head.

''Nope.'' I replied honestly, making him sigh.

''I realized.'' He admitted, kissing me once more on the neck, before forcing himself to pull away again. ''Right, I'm off to go and get changed into this…disguise and leave you to finish up. And then I'll take you shopping.'' He confirmed, heading to the kitchen door.

''Urm…hang on. What about the things that you like about me? Love about me? Nothing to say?'' I teased. He laughed easily in response, letting me lace my fingers with his to stop him leaving.

''Plenty to say actually; rather not bore you about it though. It will be another treat to look forward to whilst we shop.'' He confirmed, kissing me again, once on the lips. I sighed as he pulled away.

''Okay then…I haven't been to Primark in ages. There's none in America.'' I sighed happily as I thought about today. ''So, I think I'm going to enjoy today.'' I confirmed, making him laugh easily in response as he walked out of the kitchen.
